What can we say? Completely excellent in every way. Perfect casting, they connected the new to the old Star Trek universes /storylines /timelines well. JJ Abrams is on a roll, and we can't wait for the next movie to come out.
At the theaters:
1. I brought a camera, to document the experience. Hmm.... Should we bring video recording cameras to movie theaters? Ooops! It didn't even occur to me till I was busted mine out, started narrating, and then the security guard in Chinese is yelling at me: Miss! No cameras allowed...!!!
2. Yes, we do have assigned seats. The ticket seller pulls up a grid, shows you the seats available, and you choose. It's like buying tickets for a concert, an airplane... etc, etc. Or all in short, assigned seats at the movies!
3. You get 2 popcorn options: rainbow colored sweet popcorn. Or the regular salty sort. Most Chinese go rainbow, most Americans go salty.
4. Other interesting things available at concession: dried squid, beer, Pocky, and dried prunes. YUM!
5. Since we went to the matinee show, we were almost the only ones in the theater. It was medium-sized, clean, and felt just like home. YES! Also, we saw a trailer to a Chinese movie that's about kung fu robots. I think it's like a Transformers meets Robocop type action movie.
